Hi Janne,
Just saw the Eurovision Song Contest and I had 3 favourites: Austria, Finland, Ireland. Yes, she has a very good voice, good song and deserved better.
Anne-Marie
I don't think I have ever heard you this melodic and orchestral. Beautiful! Vocals as well.
Rob

That's a good song to be "Not That Good". I enjoyed listening to it. I think your female vocalist had a wonderful performance. I really enjoyed the song arrangement. Thanks Jim for your kind words I'm glad you think it's a good song, rather than not that good Janne

Thoroughly enjoyed listening.. Very masterful use of the orchestral style.. I especially liked how you varied the arrangement each time you repeated the verse or chorus. Also, your chord changes often surprised me - - and I liked that.. And your word selection, such as :chardonnay' displayed creative reach. Finally, your last stanza had a completely different construction.. Like your subject, you yourself expand the normal boundaries and put your own imprint on your work.. Thank you for letting me soak in your creative work! Thanks for your very uplifting feedback Nice to hear you noticed those small nuances between verses. And that my chord changes surprised you - I think there are some chords which sounded like lifted from Alan Parson song, so his music is definitely one source of inspiration here. And thanks for 'expanding boundaries', that tells me that I'm on the right path Janne

Very nice and rich! Excellent Song! The melody is very beautiful and the chord progression is also really wonderful. Great vocal! And the great orchestration, too! This tune is a little bit long but I never got tired of it. I think that it will become even more wonderful if there are countermelodies by oboe, F.horn, first violins, cellos, etc in places. But that is merely my taste, please do not mind. Enjoyed my listen a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki Adachi your nice comment Glad to hear you liked the melody and chord progression and the orchestration, good idea concerning countermelodies, this was my first real use of The Orchestra plugin, so there are many things to learn in the future, I'll keep your idea in mind I agree that it is a bit long, I could have left out the last chorus section, but the ending bridge didn't work well without it. But nice to hear you didn't get tired Janne

Pretty song Janne!! Melody is lovely and I like the arrangement. Vocal is strong and heartfelt. It would be nice if Saara could hear the song..I'm sure she'd appreciate it! Very nicely done! Take care. Greg Thanks Greg, I really appreciate your kind feedback Actually I sent a link of this song to Saara's fan club mail address but didn't get any response Janne

Anne-Marie, yes I agree she deserved better, although I think the song didn't give her chance to show her full potential. I don't think I have ever heard you this melodic and orchestral. Beautiful! Vocals as well. Rob
Thanks Rob for your kind words Janne

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
